Same with my boy he'll watch things that have other animals and stuff but the rest he doesn't really care about, sometimes he looks at it but looks away right after

Not often, but sometimes. A while back The Shining was on telly and Loki was fascinated by it...I think the music freaked him out, he let out a couple of howls/barks at it

It may not count as watching tv but i was on skype to my oh before and i couldn't calm Cassie down, the sound of her voice and the fact the oh was doing her Cassie high pitched party voice was driving her mad lol. Cassie's head was going side to side and whinning and she never took her eyes off the screen lol

Oh yeah, he loves anything with dogs on or wildlife programs. Even if im yt things he gets excited

if there are dogs he'll watch or bark at it

Bruno is always watching Animal planet and dog borstel with me, I am worried he will pick upsome bad habits lol

ours love nature programs they sit and watch the tigers/lions

Logan likes nature shows when there are penguins. Even if David Attenborough says "penguin" he gets up off the couch and put his feet up on the tv stand. Only Attenborough and only penguins. Weird, weird dog.

The girls love watching animals but go crazy if its dogs, they loved Paul O'Grady!

Cassie is currently fixated at the world indoor bowls championships sad dog lol, oops sad owner because Cassie never turned it over

Teddy watches Snooker.

He is fixated by sheep and living in Wales we have a lot of them. He seems to be able to recognise them on the TV.

Other animals on the TV generally catches his attention.

He sometimes feels the need to comment and give staffie words of wisdom to the most unusual things like science programs, quantum physics etc

Some music seems to get his attention.

He gets very concerned about crying children both in real life and on the TV.

If I use the TV to access internet radio, after a while the menu shrinks and then floats round the screen to stop it burning an image onto the screen. He growls at it when it does that.

Also as I pass the sound from the TV out through my HiFi he has been known to look around the back of the speakers when dogs bark.

Simon & Teddy

Kuchar generally ignores the telly, but if a dog barks in the programme then he barks back and gets all agitated looking around the house for the "intruder". How do you explain to a dog that it's only the telly? We have to switch over sometimes ....
